Thank you for video-ing this, we were there and when I try to explain to people what we saw, well, words just couldn't do it justice! I have never seen sooooo many fireworks in the sky at once, it was better than I could have imagined! Ash rained down on us and the volume sounded like a war, but it was SPECTACULAR! I swear I could have read a newspaper, it was so bright from the sparkles!! Thank you for all you do, it wouldn't be a great WDW vacation if you at AllEars weren't on the job!

I do miss the days when they lit up each country during Illuminations, I wish they would bring that back. I love the video on the globe in the lagoon but it really needs to be much bigger to see what is being shown on it. Bring back the Tapestry of Nations parade (the original one, before it became Tapestry of Dreams), the music was so beautiful as was the whole experience, it made me cry!

Back in 1990....Epcot had the best Fireworks show of Illuminations in the history of Disneyworld Fireworks .....when they lit up each country and played the music from that country saving the USA for the last and the best. People would come from all the other theme Parks just to see "Illuminations"..at least once in their lifetime. Now they have the "Worst" Fireworks. It takes 20 minutes just to get to the ball or whatever they do and the Fireworks take all of 5 minutes. Seems like alot less. People loose interest really fast.
Disneyworld should bring back the Original Illuminations (and that great music) and put this "New" one away... never to be used again.

We watched the show from the water's edge at the Germany Pavilion. The video doesn't do justice to the experience. It wasn't quite what they did for the 4th of July, but at one point, you would have thought the sky was on fire. :)

Wasn't it an Amazing day? I wanted it to never end....
It was great that I got to see you at the AG Theatre while waiting for the ceremony to begin. And thanks again for the trading card.

So much happened to me all in just one day! I was fortunate enough to be seated right next to Meg Crofton, Jim MacFee and Erin Youngs and had a really nice conversation with Meg. Jim even took my camera and snapped a shot of my Mom and I with Meg!
